To your point earlier, Brett, which you so brilliantly pointed out, like the Byron Donald's response right there is exactly the issue that we have with this Republican Party.
They refuse to admit that there are real issues with affordability or with anything.
Then how can we look to our leaders in a bipartisan way to solve these issues?
We just simply can't.
It is so ridiculous.
And the last thing I was gonna say, it's gonna make a little bit less sense now, Brett, but I was gonna interrupt you a little bit earlier and tell you to, hey, Brett, why don't you tone down the rhetoric over there?
I mean, corporate media is just like, they're such pusses, honestly, right?
Because anytime there's ever a situation or whatever, their initial instinct
is to blame like the democrats rhetoric we were talking about this earlier uh like earlier in the week with shapiro when caroline levitt was like going after like misquoting stuff from josh shapiro over here governor of pennsylvania and she's like yeah we we they really have to tone down their rhetoric and the media just like eats this stuff up and they'll like bring a democratic politician on for example
And they'll go, hey, Jamie Raskin, is it time for Democrats to tone down the rhetoric?
And meanwhile, like every clip that we show, like this wasn't old footage.
This stuff just happened this week.
This just stuff happened today.
The rhetoric from these MAGAs, from Hegseth, from Trump, from literally everyone that we saw is out of control, like out of control, five alarm fire shit.
It's unbelievable to me that legacy media out there just does their bidding for them.
But it makes sense, right?
These are the same people that hang out with them behind closed doors, that actually like them, that want them to win and succeed and want all of their billionaire buddies to win and succeed.
at the expense of the American people.
It's deeply disheartening.
But not to end the show on a bummer, I do feel like there's a way out of here, and that's with communities like this, with independent media, with asking the Byron Donalds of the world, like, hey, affordability, where are we ranking Trump on the economy, and getting his response, and now holding that footage forever to show his constituents, hey, if you're suffering right now, the guy that's running over here
